Paranormal experiences' by DR Mehra Shrikhande is an attempt lo look at the world of parapsychology through the eyes of a scientist. DR Shrikhande, a student of Nair Hospital in Mumbai completed her M.S. in Ophthalmology in 1985 and settled in Pradhikaran, a suburb of Punc. Her love for parapsychology (meaning the scientific study of psychic phenomena) or phenomena that are beyond logic & reasoning is apparent in the number of years she has spent studying it, She admits lo have been attracted to a off-beat line of thinking since childhood & enjoys swimming against the tide. The curiosity of what happens after death has its basis in questions like the existence of God & fundamentals of religion. In the early 80's she read Dr Raymond Moody's book 'Life after Life' which deals with the Near-Death Experience. She too followed a similar path & spoke lo dying people & compiled her findings. Encouraged by the similarities she found in her patients & those in the West, she probed deeper. She spoke to a number of people from all walks of life about out-of-body experiences, apparitional sightings, medium ship, hypnotists, past-life regressionists, clairvoyants, angel therapists & so on. Her book gives the real-life experiences of people along with salient features, suggestive theories for the happenings & sceptics views. A must-read for spiritually inclined persons & those interested in or dealing with the paranormal
